matlab2tikz v0.0.5 released

Submitted by nschloe on Mon, 04/01/2010

The next version v0.0.5 of matlab2tikz has just been released to the wild.

The script has undergone significant changes in large parts and can now deal with more MATLAB® plots than ever. For example, support for zplane plots and frequency response plots has been added. Also, thanks to verbose user input, a number of bugs with existing functionality has been fixed.

New command line options are:

  • silent (boolean, default false): be less verbose with warnings.
  • imagesAsPng (boolean, default true): when plotting images and color bars, create a PNG image that is inserted into the TikZ plots instead of imitating the image with little rectangles
  • minimumPointsDistance (numerical, default 0.0): Minimum distance for two points to be plotted separately. Can be used to artifically reduce the number of points in a plot.
  • extraAxisOptions (cell or char, default {}): Extra options that will be appended to each axis.

For more info and downloads, see the matlab2tikz page.

The script works fine on my laptop. However when I am trying to run on my PC, it is not working. I am getting following error on screen and the script is exiting.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
??? Undefined function or variable 'inputParser'.

Error in ==> matlab2tikz at 108
matlab2tikzOpts = inputParser;

Error in ==> plt_rollcmp at 96
matlab2tikz( 'C:\Parkhi\Work\VSS2010\paperdoc\Fig\rollcmpplt1.tikz');
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Is this related with version of matlab? Same version is being used on PC/Laptop. (MATLAB Version 7.0.1.24704 (R14) Service Pack 1) hence I dont see this as the reason

Kindly help.

Yep,
it's the version number. You need at least 2007a to use the inputParser; I'll include a graceful warning into the next release.

Cheers,

When I try a really simple plot like:

t = -4:0.1:4;
x = (abs(t) < 2).*(2-abs(t));
plot(t,x,'k')
centeraxes(gca)
matlab2tikz('test1.tikz')

the horizontal line and all the tick mark labels disappear. Any ideas?
